Hi everyone,

I'm not 100% sure of the modalities of the list and whether simply  
passing on information is within scope, but via a friend's blog today  
I read that Stats Can has made all of its electronic publications  
free as of last week. Here is the relevant announcement: "http://
www.statcan.ca/Daily/English/060424/b060424a.htm" which indicates  
that they have made about 150 items free for which there was  
previously a charge.

To browse the publications, from that page click on the "Our products  
and services" link at the top and then follow the link called "Browse  
our free internet publications (PDF or HTML)".

Progress? I haven't followed Stats Can closely enough to qualify how  
important this is, but I suppose that making anything free for which  
there once was a charge is somewhat positive.

Best,

Michael
